So apparently Canham may not believe in sacrifice bunting?? Claunch leadoff single....no effort to advance him into scoring position. Don't like a lot of what I'm seeing so far from MC. Having your No. 5 hitter bunt in the second inning is a wasted out. Nice to see you're ready to bail after five games, though.

How did this become one-and-done with no return visit? Sounds like a Bob DeCarolis thing to do.

Well Henry, I see you've realized that the score was 1-0 MSU, not 4-0, when Claunch led off with a single. Rather, you're claiming now that it's a waste to have your #5 hitter bunt after a leadoff single. Well you're entitled to your opinion, but when the batter following Claunch's single had a batting average of .000 (zero AB this season for Harvey), just maybe a bunt would have been in order....ya' think?? And "bailing after five games"?? Well, speak for yourself, but (IMO) valid criticism of decisions by an inexperienced head coach is just making clear what, again IMO, is the obvious truth. If MC starts to show some real insight I'll be the first to compliment him. Has nothing to do bailing or not bailing.

It's another rough day to be a Beaver. And to think, about a month ago the basketball ball teams were playing well, and we'd just had the Diamond Dinner. I'm in this for the long haul, and there is literally always tomorrow after a Saturday on a weekend series.
May the February blahs give way.

K my bad...then I gotta say it was a bad scheduling choice to do so....the Beavs are a solidified baseball team that warrants a home and home series with any team that they play

If MC starts to show some real insight I'll be the first to compliment him. Has nothing to do bailing or not bailing. Unless it is very late in the game, and you're bunting to get a runner from second to third in a no-out situation, analytics have proven pretty much beyond the shadow of a doubt that it's the waste of an out with a position player batting. Especially on the road, trailing, in the second inning. MC has 3.5 y ears of head-coaching experience, at a level higher than DI. This is not his first rodeo.

Dang I just need some spark to cheer me up....too many things happening wrong with my Beav’s. Women are having a tough go, men’s hoops are down the tube....was hoping baseball would be my cure. I think they will turn a corner in March .....once Mitch gets a better handle on things 😬

How did this become one-and-done with no return visit? Sounds like a Bob DeCarolis thing to do. MSU was supposed to come to Seattle last year. When the format of that tournament changed, MSU pulled out, with our blessing. We already had the return trip planned, which we are honoring. BDC, having left several years earlier, had nothing to do with this.

"MC has 3.5 y ears of head-coaching experience, at a level higher than DI. This is not his first rodeo." IMO, coaching minor league baseball is a far, far cry from D1baseball. MC has NO prior experience coaching college ball and, again IMO, unfortunately it's showing.
